I don't think that I have been this excited of a wedding in years, maybe decades!

My brother-in-law Jorge will be marrying the perfect girl this coming Sunday. I have been honored by them allowing me to make the pillow that their rings will be tied to before they say their vows and slip them on their fingers with all of the promises and passion of of a young couple in love.

Each stitch in this pillow is made with all of my love and hope of happiness for Jorge and Kimmie.

I found some very beautiful vintage ribbon at: Katrina's Old World Charm701 Sutter St, Folsom, CA 95630 (916) 357-5176

I combined the vintage ribbons with some of the newer stuff I already had on hand. The vintage ribbons are so much nicer to work with and look way better too. Now to add some beads, embroidery, lace, and trim and we will be ready for the wedding on Sunday!

Some of my favorite Ribbon Books

This one is not ribbon-work but it is my favorite fabric artistry book and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves fabric art or nature art.
